I am looking forward to the Sweet & Maxwell event on eDisclosure in London. Venue is: The Hallam 44 Hallam Street London W1W 6JJ Date : Thursday, November 15, 2012 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM In searching in this blog for past events that I’ve attended, most of the links and contents have changed and/or [...]

Last summer I posted this – collaboration coming from open source . Looks like there is now a forum setup to spearhead the open source (code engine) for ediscovery. The FreeEed.org invites folks to join in the movement. I guess even law firms (not sure about lawyers themselves) are welcome, as noted that DLA Piper [...]

The most difficult aspect of edisc(overy)/(losure) is writing a definitive, complete book covering all the elements of edisc that satisfies everyone or is suitable for general release. So, will a Dummies Guide or an Idiot’s Guide to edisc make it to this year Xmas book list? Perhaps an unlikely Xmas event. What has been stated [...]

My Asian alerts on e-discovery highlighted that ediscovery in India is a local affair, confined to the Indian jurisdiction. The blog alert is from Techno Legal News. Will the rest of the world also follow the approach taken by the Indian to ‘controlling’ e-discovery in the name of ‘legality and acceptability’? Just a short posting [...]

I guess it all [...]

Last week I attended the Information Assurance Advisory Council (IAAC) workshop held at the BCS Office in London. The workshop papers will be published at the IAAC site. The main topic was ‘Consumerism: Same old IA Issues … or not?’. The presentations were diverse and the attendees’ perspectives were diverse too. A pity I had [...]

The Magic Quadrant for E-Discovery is available for purchase at Gartner’s site. I wonder whether the survey/research also considered Open Source ediscovery platforms. I suspect not from the free review at Law.com. I also wonder whether the Magic Quadrant took into consideration the usage or the applicability of the products for edisclosure as in international [...]

CIETAC has announced that effective May 1, 2012, the CIETAC Arbitration Rules (2012) shall uniformly apply to the CIETAC and its sub-commissions. CIETAC started the rules revision back in early 2010. During early 2010 I was in CIETAC (as reported in this blog) and had an opportunity to gain valuable insights into the workings of [...]
